outlet baby proofing ideas

I have a dilemma....the outlet for the lightswitch in LO's room is right behind the crib. We have the main lamp and baby monitor plugged into those plugs and no option to plug them in anywhere else. He hasn't found it yet but I know it's a matter of time. How do we baby proof it but still be able to use the plugs?

I have the same issue. We lowered his crib to the lowest setting when he started standing 3 months ago, and now the plugs are at mattress-level. I have a breathable bumper in his crib that kind of covers it, but once he figures it out we're going to have to rearrange some things. We do have a cover that is supposed to cover plugs in the outlet, so I'll try that first. I'm afraid it will stick out too far from the wall, though.

Can you move the crib? I really don't know of any other option for baby proofing outlets with plugs. I would be terrified as my lo has already started to try and pull plugs around the house and I keep having to move him away. I can't imagine lo alone in his room with access to them. I has to move lo crib for this very reason.

We have plates that replace the ones on there now... You have to turn the cover with the plug to get it in and if baby pulls the plug out it snaps shut! I like it for plugs I use but arent always plugged in. I also have one that snaps over the outlet and plugs so baby can't pull the plug out at all. It's a pain in the butt to plug something in there, but I like it for outlets that always have something plugged in.
